As soon as It's born. The gravitational force of the Black Hole will pull matter into it.

What are the things a black hole can do?

They can suck your little brain out of your nose...


Does a black hole suck?

A black hole doesn't "suck" things in. It pulls them in with it's immense gravity. In order to suck something in, there must be something to fill in empty space such as air.


Do black hole suck the sun?

In theory, yes, a black hole could suck up the sun.


Economic black hole?

I think that refers to a big money waste/things that suck in money.


Why will a black hole suck things up?

A black hole will "suck things up" for the same reason that the Sun, or Jupiter, or Earth, "suck things up", although I would prefer the term "attracts things gravitationally". All those objects attract things thanks to their gravitational attraction - this, in turn, is related to its mass, i.e., more massive objects have a larger gravitational attraction.


How is gravity related to black holes?

it is said that there are black holes in space which we have discovered is true and how gravity realates to a black hole is well, a black hole is said to suck away other universes we have not discovered yet gravity pulls things to the ground and a black hole uses that same pull force to suck in universes


Why does a black hole suck people besides gravity?

Gravity is the only reason a black hole pulls things in. Nothing can escape a black hole, so gravity is its only way of affecting the outside world.


What does a black hole do with what it suck in?

The material sucked in to a black hole becomes part of the black hole - that is, a black hole crushes matter to an nearly no size, at all.


Why do black holes not suck things up?

A black hole will "such things up" if such things get sufficiently close to the black hole. This is a result of its gravity. Similarly, our Sun will "suck things up" if they get too close - for example, a comet might crash onto the Sun; the comet's mass will increase the mass of the Sun. Please note that if, for example, our Sun becomes a black hole (it probably won't, since it doesn't have enough mass for that), without changing its mass in the process, the Earth will continue orbiting the black hole as it orbited the Sun before. It will NOT be "sucked up" in the process - the black hole's gravitational attraction would be the same as the Sun's attraction before becoming a black hole.


Are black holes so strong that they can suck in light?

Yes. The gravitational "Pull" of a black hole is so intense that EM radiation is pulled into it, and even time is warped. However, black holes do not "suck in" anything. A black hole is a region of space toward which things are forced. So light is actually pushed, rather than pulled, toward a black hole.


How do black hole suck up?

A black hole doesn't literally suck. A black hole pulls things closer to it. And it does this the same way that we stay on the earth--- gravity. A singularity, a point with mass but no height, width or length is at the center of every black hole. This singularity is what has the gravitational strength to pull everything, even light, towards it. It does it all with an unfathomably strong gravitational pull.


Can you get sucked in a black hole?

A black hole doesn't actually "suck" things towards it. Rather it's so massive it's gravity "pulls" things towards it. As to your question yes a person could be pulled into a black hole. They would go through a process known as Spaghettification.
